Thorns -

Bound

We were prisoners of time

Suspended embrace

Together we arrived

Into this space

Suspended in light

Understood as one

Let our hearts burn

Let the black birds fly

And carry the pain

Listen to their song

Resonate a new day

Breaking the silence

Clearing vision to see

What I searched in you

I found buried in me

Neither by tongues

Nor uttered by thorns

We held onto serpents

Fragile as blades

Thank you for letting what was lost

Blossom and entwine

In the windows of your eyes
